Flashing cue lights

Does anyone know a way to make the stimulus lights blink other than turning them on, then off, then on, etc?

I would like to be able to easily change the duration and frequency of the blinking (ie sometimes use 2Hz, 5 seconds, sometimes use 5 Hz, 3 seconds, etc.) without rewriting the program every time.

 

Thanks.

Try this:

Var_Alias Time ON  = A(0)  \ Default = 1 second
Var_Alias Time OFF = A(1)  \ Default = 1 second
Var_Alias Duration = A(2)  \ Default = 5 seconds

 

DIM A = 2
DIM B = 2

 

S.S.5,
S1,
0.001": SET A(0) = 1, A(1) = 1, A(2) = 5 ---> S2

S2,   \ 1st Statement: Convert the Time to MED Ticks.
\
\ 2nd Statement: Update display with current Blink Rate
\ and Duration.
#START: SET B(0) = A(0) * 1", B(1) = A(1) * 1", B(2) = A(2) * 1" ---> S3
0.01": SHOW 1,Time ON,A(0), 2,Time OFF,A(1), 3,Duration,A(2) ---> S2

S3,
B(1)#T: ON 1 ---> S4
#Z1: ---> S2

S4,
B(0)#T: OFF 1 ---> S3
#Z1: OFF 1 ---> S2

 

S.S.6,
S1,
#START: ---> S2

S2,   \ Time the Duration
B(2)#T: Z1 ---> S1
